Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes of rectoanal function after intersphincteric resection(ISR). Methods In this study,27 lower(3~5 cm from anal verge)rectal adenocarcinoma patients(T0-T2 determined by MRI and endoanal uhrasonography before surgery)undergoing intersphincteric resection between January2005 and January 2007 were followed up,their rectoanal function was assessed by rectoanal manometry 1 week preoperatively and 2 weeks,3 months,6 and 9 months postoperatively.The data were compared by using student t test and X2 test.Results For these 27 patients,within 3 months after surgery,the mean resting pressures(44±6)mm Hg to(19±3)mm Hg,maximum resting pressures(60±8)mm Hg to(33±4)mm Hg,squeezing pressures(180±19)mm Hg to(131±16)mm Hg and msximum tolerable volume(165±20)ml to(55±8)nd were decreased significantly(P<0.05),and the rectoanal inhibitory reflexes(BAIR)were all absent;6 months after surgery,the resting pressures,squeezing pressures and maximum tolerable volume began to increase obviously,and 6 patients presented RAIR;3 months later the mean resting pressures,maximum resting pressures and squeezing pressures were(41±5)mm Hg,(57±8)mm Hg and(173±19)mm Hg respectively,close to the normal range(P>0.05),though the maximum tolerable volume increased to(110±16)mi,still lower than the preoperative value(P=0.0153),11 patients restored BAIR.Conclusions The rectoanal function is injured obviously after intersphincteric resection within a short time period,but with time it was gradually restored.
